  • Is there a way you can set up a printer hp 7520 to analyze the auto size?

    When I scan from the printer or the computer, I either make real and then later crop size or size to scan. When I had my photosmart hp over the printer.

    Printer crop marks are not implemented in any version of Pages using v5.6.1. Export to PDF and open it in the designer of the affinity. Once again export to PDF and apply the printing marks in the menu export. The following has been open in the designer of the affinity and exported in the form of a PDF/A-1 a with all the points you see here:

  • Error my firewall setting prevents my printer communicates so I can't print. Someone at - he ever heard of this before? Thank you very much.

    I get the error that my firewall setting prevents my printer to communicate so I can't print.  Someone at - he ever heard of this before?  Thank you very much.

    Hi TreetisEbben,

    I had this problem before, but only when you are using the AVG firewall. Usually, you can go to your factory of the printer to see how to unblock specific ports for firewall. Also, to see if this is the problem, temporarily disable your firewall and then try to print. But don't forget to turn it back on once you're done. I hope this helps!

  • LaserJet M1212nf: Problems setting up wireless printing

    I can set up to print from my laptop with a USB connection to the printer. I want to be able to print when away from my office, so have tried for 2 years, on and off, to get my printer to print wireless. I spent probably 10 + hours trying to get this set up. In the end, I always end up having to reinstall the printer with the same old USB connection.

    It drives me crazy. I'm a tech writer for a society of software and very savvy in computer science. However, my non-techie family have all managed to set up wireless printing at their home in 5 minutes or less with different brands of printers.

    Here are the steps that I followed, although I also tried many variations, like trying with my USB cable connected or disconnected.

    (1) uninstall the current installation of the printer (USB).

    (2) on the printer itself, make sure that the settings > network settings are the default values.

    (3) using the latest drivers and installation .exe from the HP site, start a new installation of the printer.

    (4) when you are prompted, select "wireless."

    RESULT: even if my firewall is turned OFF, search and indicates that he is there any printer on the network. (Huh? Which network?)

    (5) try again once and this time select "Network Setup."

    RESULT: even if my firewall is turned OFF, search and says that it cannot detect a network.

    If the wireless installation requires a network, but network installation does not cause a network to install, I don't know where to go from here.

    (6) I also tried downloading and installing the ePrint utility, but when I'm at halfway through the installation, it tells me that it cannot find my printer.

    I am suspicious that my model M1212nf MFP may even not allow for wireless printing. Some info on the HP site says to check a particular button lights up to indicate that the printer is online. This light does not exist on my printer model. However, the parameters of the printer from my physics has parameters such as: "show IP address," etc., which would lead me to believe that it can work wireless.

    I have read all the help related HP printer, and there is nothing which explains, in simple language, what are the types of cables, I need to set up a network and the Wi - Fi connection, when to plug them in, what facilities to perform on the many Add - ons available, etc.. I don't know that it's a 5 minute process if there was just a good explanation in the help of the UP of how do. Assistance would be appreciated!

    Hello @SKYdiz,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you have had problems for the last 2 years and spent many hours trying to configure your HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf MFP for wireless printing. At this point I'll provide more information about it. First of all, are sitting you?

    Unfortunately, the HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf multifunction printer isn't a model wireless printer. The "nf" at the end of the name of the printer is the abbreviation of 'network, fax. Therefore, if your printer is not able to connect to your router wireless, it CAN connect with an ethernet cable.

    All you need to do is connect an ethernet cable to the back of your printer to your router. That all devices connected to this router even (whether through wireless or wired ethernet connections) would be able to 'see' your printer on the network and print it on your printer. For more information on configuring ethernet on your printer, please visit: Setup the printer to a wired network in Windows 7 for HP's LaserJet printers.

    Now, if an ethernet connection does not work in your specific network, HP makes other Laserjet models that do not use the wireless function. Here are two LaserJet who are black only, multifunction wireless units that resemble your current printer model: HP LaserJet MFP HP LaserJet MFP M225dw Pro and M127fw Pro.

    Please let me know if this clears up any confusion. If you have other questions or concerns, I'll be more than happy to help you. Happy new year!

  • Cannot set a default printer

    This comes in our helpdesk today, and I have absolutely no idea on how to solve this problem.

    -The client has just had new printer Lexmark Pro 915 installed.  Can correctly print a test page for the properties of the printer.
    -Cannot print from Excel.  It is said that no printer is found.
    -L' printer is not marked as default.  When I try to set the default printer, nothing happens.
    -No printer cannot be set as default.  When you try to do, nothing happens.
    -L' printer is connected and coming as "ready".  Still, test page prints fine.
    -Tried to uninstall the old unused printers from Add/Remove programs.  Restarted the computer.  No effect.
    -Tried to uninstall, reboot, and reinstall the printer Lexmark Pro 915.  Behaves in the same way (tried to settle before removing administrator rights, so by default).
    -Tried to completely close down the computer, unplug and remove the battery, but once it has restarted, he always had the same problem.  No printer can be set as default.
    -L' printer is still recognized by the computer, but it is not the default.  In some programs (Notepad, IE), it can always print, although he must select manually.  In Word and Excel, the old printer which has since been completely uninstalled still appears as the default.  In Word, the printer by default only presents itself as a blank line, but you can select the printer in a menu drop-down.  In Excel, it leaves no him print at all, saying that no printer is found.  It does allow him to select a printer.  It is a big problem since Excel is the program that it needs to be able to print from most.

  • Cannot set the default printer.

    I'm having a problem with one of the users on my setup of server companies. She is unable to set a default printer and cannot print from Excel 2010 to all. However, while on the terminal even when I login as administrator, everything works perfectly. I tried to set a default value manually through the registry, I tried all of the scripts that I can find, I tried to uninstall and reinstall the printers. I don't know where to go from here. Any advice?

    It's a 2003 server.
    The terminal is running XP.
    Printers are all non-local network.
    However, the result is the same for a local printer.

    quick response is appreciated,

    Hi @darshan9 ,

    I see that you have problems affecting the default printer for users and you cannot print over the network.
    I'd love to help you.

    Do you mean the configuration of individual computers with the printer on the network users, or a computer with multiple users?

    You have administrative rights on the computer to make changes?

    What is the name and the product number of your printer? How can I find my model number or product number?

    Download and run the Print and Scan doctor. It will diagnose the problem and could solve it automatically. http://www.hp.com/go/tools > using HP diagnostic tools for printers under Windows HP.

    I suggest you to check if you have another account user or an administrative account.

    I also suggest to create a new user account and check if you are able to set the default printer.

    Create a user account. Create a user account.

    If you're still having problems, run the Fixit tool. Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer.

  • "set as default printer" is not an option

    My default printer some how was chosen as OneNote 2007.  I tried to change my default printer to the one I want, but it won't allow me.  I clicked on the printer that I want to and it gives me an accurate list options but not "set as default printer".  Please help me fix this because I can't print until this problem is corrected.

    Try right click on the printer you want to sometimes - it seems there are two menus and it seems random as it appears.  One contains the option, the other does not.  Try several times - and then set it aside and try again.  I think at some point, you will get the correct menu and be able to make the change.

    In the meantime, certainlly you can print.  Just use the file / print option where you select the printer and choose the one you want to print on (you cannot use the "print" button, but you will still be able to print).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
